    what surround system to use?

    The final decision went to a Studio Monitor, more precisely the RP5 G3 of KRK, I heard it and I'm very satisfied!

    what surround system to use?

    Thanks, hm, well 1000-2000 dollars/euros/pounds is a little much, and I wouldn't be contented with reverting to a stereo system (though it's true they can sound cool) so I think I'm going for a small seperate system. A collegue told me Bose could be one of the best choices to make with its...

    Yeah sorry, I mixed the trademarks... So I'll start looking for seperate speakers then, thanks!

    what surround system to use?

    Hi, I'm looking for a new surround system, not a home cinema (preferably 5.1, since 7.1 means hanging up speakers. I'm not going below that either.) This is the reason: I now have the Creative Z506, and I use it for my computer (see specs below) and synthesizer: a Korg Krome 88 keys. I...

    extremely sensitive key on keyboard

    Hello, I got a Logitech K800 keyboard which is now 3 years old, it's still working perfectly except that the "a"-key is so sensitive I just have to touch it gently to trigger it. It even happened a few times that it was typing "aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...." at windows logon without touching anything...

    PC reboot cycle but then normal

    Final update: looks like it got fixed! I went for the possible bad component search and removed the RAM memory. No error signal from the mobo and still in reboot cycle. I put them back in and...it remains stable :O strange piece of magic.

    PC reboot cycle but then normal

    Update: well it's too late to go check for a new battery (7pm) but still I find strange that the PC was running for a few hours and now it does the same again except I can't get it to actually boot anymore. (I decided to shut it down since I hate to let it run idle for long periods). I read...

    PC reboot cycle but then normal

    Hi there, just in case it happens again: just five/ten minutes ago I wanted to boot up my pc, but suddenly it went in a reboot cycle: screen remained black, shut down. Boot (automatic), still black screen, shut down, etc. So I waited a few minutes and now I eagerly pressed for the...

    No response at boot

    Okay. So here's what I did now. And there is no USB-stick inserted. I cleared the CMOS, went to the BIOS (yup it worked) and set some settings back to wanted settings. One of the settings was using Windows as primary OS above two "Ubuntu" options. Go figure which ubuntu is which if there's no...

    No response at boot

    Hah. Got the problem again when installing Linux with one of the USB-sticks, even though they were not inserted after installation. But the problem disappeared this morning, so it could be something with internal heat or some internal memory through a capacitor or something... Gonna try the...

    No response at boot

    Hi again, 1. well my keyboard that I have used for more than two years now will certainly not be it or be replaced, it's a pretty expensive Logitech K800 (€100) through bluetooth, the mouse also uses the Bluetooth Unifying Technology. 2. I got into BIOS this evening again without the USB and...

    No response at boot

    I begin to suspect it's the Sandisk Cruzer Pop (8GB) I bought... since it is sometimes recognized as fixed disk. Is there a way to change it back to removable?

    No response at boot

    Hi, here's the problem: suddenly I can't enter the BIOS anymore, it just does not react to my DEL-key... It also doesn't react to bootable USB, it just goes straight to Windows and from there everything works perfectly. The only hardware thing I changed before having this issue is...

    RAM Latency for upgrade and lower frequency showing

    So I did have to go to the OC settings after all... but it worked, thanks! About the model: yes that's exactly it! I seriously doubt that shipping would happen in just 2 days though...I live in Belgium :p But whatever. I'll look for possible cards then! And uh... does the latency have to match...

    RAM Latency for upgrade and lower frequency showing

    Hi there, so I'm planning to upgrade my RAM-memory to 16GB sooner or later, but I can't seem to find the data about its latency. The exact product I have now is a G.Skill 2x4GB "1600-788 RipjawsX K2 GSK", I don't know if the K2 GSK is helpful but hey... I used Astra32 for this but the info I...

    Noisy cooling

    To give some more information, here is a scheme of the airflow inside the case. http://imageshack.com/a/img545/2334/imdq.jpg Red arrows are air intake, blue arrows are outflow and green are inside flow.

    Noisy cooling

    Hi, it's actually been like that for 1.5 years now, but I find it strange that my pc is more noisy than indicated by the manufacturers...although I have an idea, but I don't dare testing it myself because if it is the CPU cooling, I could shut it down and then, even with the air flow from...

    Computing sounds

    Fans are pretty obvious. But sometimes you also get a sort of crackling, for example with my computer, even though I'm not using my HDD since the SDD is the main drive. It's most obvious with old systems. Mine is only dating from July 2012.

    Computing sounds

    That's what I thought, but then I thought they must be pretty steady, far more steady than transformers (that buzz). But maybe not then...
